While traveling I have seen pit boxes or war wagons at a place in Mooresville, NC http://www.2ndchanceraceparts.com/index.htm a look at their wedsite said that all they had are currently sold but if interested you might check back. Interesting place as they sell used and excess new NASCAR car...

Have no idea how expensive it might be but what about the track that mounts to the ceiling in hospitals for the privacy curtains around beds. I think the tack uses some kind of roller which allows the curtain to move smoothly. They probably have a lot of different cutain styles also.

I also have the Good Year one from Sam's Club. I don't use it everyday as someone in the business might do. It is heavily made and very stable when leaning for tools or parts. Nice size wheels that rool well on concrete. Don't remember how much I paid but I think it was around $40 which i think...

I have written e-mails to the Speed Channel on at least 3 different occasions requesting exactly what you have proposed. Offering a seasion long series documenting Joe Average building his dream car on a limited budget. The decisions Joe Average makes regarding what he can do himself, what the...

I watched the show because of the tag line "Gasser" which has a lot of meaning if you were a gear head in the late 50's and early 60's. After watching for an hour my immediate reaction was "Thats an hour wasted that I can never get back." What was built was certainly not a "Gasser" and in my...

Pretty slick idea. I just ordered a half a dozen to give to my friends as a little Christmas present when we get together for a beer on Thursday evenings.

Well I have a 4" Chas. Parker Vise but certainly wouldn't want to break it. Thanks for the input everyone.

Has anyone ever used the Grizzly Vice Brake or the same type tool under a different manufactuer? I have some .09 and .12 thick x 2" wide steel bar stock that I would like to have a nice sharp bend in. Are they good? Do what they are supposed to?

Thanks for the comments to all that posted. I do accept responsibility for having the wheels for a year before finding out they didn't fit. I full well realize I share some of the blame. However, what grated me the most though was the attitude that "This is all your fault" . Never once in any of...

On 6/26/08 I purchased 4 each American Racing Torque Thrust "D" 15" diameter x 7" wide wheels from a company on e-bay which does business under names of gonefishing69, rodpartsdealer, Gearhead Enterprises and possibly others I am not aware of. I understand they also have booths at some car...

I will second the Ford Escape if that is an option for you. We have a 2001 Escape V6 automatic transmission that now has 160,000 miles on it. It has proven to be trouble free other then a ignition coil that went bad at about 140,000 miles. My wife drives it daily on a 50 mile round trip to work...

I'm building a car right now and am getting close to doing some brake lines and fuel lines. I plan to use stainless steel brake lines and fuel lines with AN fittings for both brake and fuel lines. Can anyone recomend a good tube bender capable of bending at least 3/16" thru 3/8" tubing and also...

About a month ago while working out in the garage with the door open I heard a buzzing and though maybe it was a wasp. I had the lights on as it was right at dusk. Looking closer it was a hummingbird in between the lit flourecent light bulb tubes. I don't know if the hummingbird was seeking...

I have been trying to find a "Woodward Ave" street sign for a long time. I was orignally from Detroit and spent many an evening cruising and hanging out in places such as the Totem Poll. I was told there was a guy who called himself the "Sign Guy" from the Detriot area who made them, but...

Thanks for the information.

My mistake! The lug nuts go on a 93 Chevy S-10 pickup. The stud/thread size is 12mm but the socket size is 13/16".

Does anyone know if Craftsman makes a plastic lined 12mm lug nut socket? I thought purchasing one of these sockets to protect chrome plated lug nuts would be somewhat easy. However I'm having a difficult time finding one and have been greeted with blank stares and people telling me they have...

Thanks, appreciate your advice and knowlegble answer. I will call the folks you suggested.

One of the bench top sand blast cabinets I am looking at uses 5.5 CFM which my small compressor can keep up with. The real question is what kind of performance does that equal? Will I be blasting forever to remove a light coat of rust or paint? Those that have used these small units what kind of...

Any other suggestions?
